A/N: Hey! If you know me you know that I give up on stories really quickly. I like this one, so I hope it can be different. I'm not going to force myself anymore to upload. If it starts feeling like a chore for me, I will stop. This is pretty random, so just... keep an open mind.
She smiled. Her mother smiled with her, worn wrinkles appearing next to her eyes. The pale 17 year old looked down at the water, holding no thought of what was yet to come.
She sat down at the old picnic table, smoothing the checkered tablecloth. She picked up a roll from the center of the table and took a large bite. The roll hit her empty stomach, making her laugh with content.
Suddenly, a pair of chocolate eyes peered at the sky. The sun peeked out from behind a large gray cloud. A frown of worry flashed across her face, but she didn't let it stay. Her mother depended on her laughter to not let the tight grasps of depression reach her again. After her father died, she had to help her mother get through it.
Her mother laughed about nothing and any flashes from worry before had disappeared. The day was over soon and after washing the dishes, she headed to bed.
She could hear storm clouds rumbling in the distance and shivered, turning over and falling into a restless sleep.
Her mother woke her up a few hours later, urging her to come down to the meeting room. A wooden raft sat on the table.
"Honey, the storm is fierce and the ship is going to sink. Try to get away from it, try to survive. I'm so sorry sweetie."
She was speechless.
She gave her mother a hug and a soft goodbye before heading out onto the raft, knowing there was no point arguing.
She felt the water underneath her before pushing out into the tumbling waves.
The storm was catching up to her, waves roaring over her.
The last wave crashed over her, and she sunk into the deep depths of the ocean.
She did the last thing she'd ever do, she smiled.
Somewhere in the world, an angel started crying.
A/N: So, what do you think? Please keep in mind that I am 13 years old and this was not beta'd. Love y'all.
